NH F&G confirms there are Feral hogs in NH located in Grafton, Sullivan and Cheshire Counties. I posted a link to the Journal for anyone who would like to read it
CONCORD, N.H. -- They're big, hairy, hungry and hopefully not coming to a neighborhood near you. Free-ranging feral swine have become one of the more serious wildlife problems in the United States, and New Hampshire has a confirmed, though small, population. Any presence is a concern, because razorbacks, as they are sometimes called, are extremely adaptable and can triple their population in a single year. Read the cover story in the new November/December 2011 issue of New Hampshire Wildlife Journal to find out more about these invaders and what's being done to prevent this destructive species from becoming established in New Hampshire.
